Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What electric lift truck models is the SU STR06000 caster assembly compatible with?
A: The SU STR06000 caster assembly is designed for Raymond electric lift trucks and select Yale and Crown models. Always verify your truck model and serial number before ordering. If you are unsure of compatibility, provide your truck model number and we can confirm fitment.
Q: Can the SU STR06000 be replaced without removing the mast?
A: Replacement of the SU STR06000 typically requires lowering the mast and removing load wheels first. Use a floor jack rated for your truck weight to safely support the frame. Do not work under a truck supported only by the hydraulic system.
Q: What wheel size does the SU STR06000 caster assembly use?
A: The SU STR06000 is equipped with a 4-inch polyurethane wheel. Replacement wheels must match this diameter and load rating. Using incorrect wheel sizes will affect truck handling and may overload the caster bearings.
Q: How often should the SU STR06000 caster assembly be greased?
A: If your SU STR06000 has a greaseable axle, apply bearing grease every 250 operating hours or quarterly, whichever comes first. Use a multi-purpose lithium grease rated for industrial equipment. Over-greasing can damage seals and cause premature bearing failure.
Q: What should I check if the SU STR06000 caster is making noise or has resistance?
A: Check for debris around the wheel and axle. Clean out dirt and lint. Verify the wheel rotates freely by hand. If rotation is stiff or jerky, the bearings may be failing and the caster assembly should be replaced. Listen for grinding sounds, which indicate internal bearing damage.
Q: Is the SU STR06000 sealed against wet floors and cold storage?
A: The standard SU STR06000 has basic sealing suitable for indoor warehouse use. For frequent wet floor or cold storage operation, consider the SU STR06000-EZ variant, which features high-traction polyurethane compound and enhanced sealing for challenging environments.
